2011 Tour de France Stage 16 (18/7/2011): Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux - Gap, 162.5km

Awesome bike handling from Rasmussen

That probably has to do with him beeing crap at handling a TT bike, not that he is a bad bike handler per say. He just got that reputation after that famous TT. On a regular bike he actually was a fine decender.

I'm probably in denial, or nuts or something.

It would be kind of sweet to see EBH or Martin take a stage.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Mollema must be leading the Tour in time spent in No Man's Land.

He certainly gets the useless breakaway award

Apparently the Greenedge bus will be bigger than the Sky bus, and Paul Sherwen asked if it will be a war of the buses?

You'd think more then 12 people would care for a stage win at the Tour. I guess not.

If sprinting stages **** me of, then stagew were the breakaway gets a stage present it ****es me off even more. I guess it's too much to ask these days to see the big boys mana a mano.

Yes, noone worked hard to get into that break at all...

TGBM's bike is purdy. Those Giants are handsome machines.

They drove like mad for the first half of the stage before the break finally got off. Nearly everyone tried to get in the right break. That it was "only" 12 who succeeded doesnt mean that the reat of the pack didnt try hard.

Boonen must have visited.

I LOL'ed.

Best thing is, he used the word crack in his spanish version of the tweet as well. I wondered what he meant.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Holy **** the weather is awful

Did you miss the first 100km?

 

[El Pistolero]

Yes, noone worked hard to get into that break at all...

Not when they have an easy last 60km no.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Why is AG2R riding??? Makes no sense

team gc

 

[El Pistolero]

Did you miss the first 100km?

No, I didn't. I just hate it that for the last 60 km we already knew the break won. Turned an exciting stage into a non stage very quickly. Especially with names like Hushovd and EBH in the break... There's just no point in watching anymore.

oh man I hope for a thundering downhil from saome of the favorites

Yes quite nice but I'm not impressed with the Specialized bikes, they look absolutely terrible.
And I ride a Specialized mountain bike so I'm not biased or anything.

In Spanish slang, a "crack" is someone who is frickin' awesome.

crack is an expression used in portugal and spain to describe some1 that is awesome/very good at something.

like for example: cristiano ronaldo is a crack (very good at football)

daniel navarro is a crack( very good person in this case i assume)

cruse you hrotha <_<

 

[Tuarts]

Marcato, Martin, Grivko, Thor, EBH, Hesjedal, Devenyns, Ignatiev, Roy, Perez

Thanks

Go EBH, Hesjedal, Ignatiev!

 

[El Pistolero]

Won't happen thanks to the break. No one will take that much risk and then not even having a stage win. Perhaps Samu though... And Voeckler. Other then that, no one will do anything in the descend.

don't get your hopes up. nothing will happen today.
